About

A Chicago native and in high school at the time, Becky’s political awakening took place on September 11, 2001.

Her perspective on national security was irrevocably shaped by the 9/11 terrorist attacks. That moment marked the beginning of Becky’s deepened engagement with national security and global affairs.

Prior to 9/11, Becky had been focused on more typical teenage concerns, but the events of that day made her realize that the world was far more dangerous and unstable than she had imagined.

The attacks ignited a sense of urgency in Becky to understand the forces behind terrorism and the importance of a strong national defense.

She became dedicated to advocating for policies and candidates that would protect the U.S. from future attacks and ensure that the nation remained a global leader in maintaining peace and security.
